This notch greatly augments the spaced relation of the blade above referred to, the wings formed by the notch efficiently serving to direct the weed bearing earth.

A pair of side knives 15 are secured, as at 1G, one at each side of, and projecting downwardly from, the plow head 7 beneath the blade 3. The knives 15 are secured to project downwardly from the said plow head at an angle so as te provide an angled cutting edge to the sub-so-il for the purpose of cutting the same, and it will be observed Vthat the knives are in the natureof thin flat blades so that the cutting action will take place without any over-turning or diverting of the sub-soi By reason of shaping and positioning the blade 3 as shown and described, the said blade will readily penetrate the ground and effect a cutting and an upwardly pulling action of the weeds, and by reason of the provision of the peculiarly shaped and positioned supplemental wings and breaker horn feature the earth will be diverted, effectively broken up, and re-distributed in a substantially pulverized condition.

The plow illustrated in the foregoing description will be found very effective in its action in routing out weeds by the roots and by acting upon the earth to substantially pulverize the same in a manner for leaving the same in a very desirable condition and also for leaving the weeds and grass roots on the top of the soil so that they may be readily removed and burned or otherwise disposed of.

In this structure the knives 15 provide for a cutting of the sub-soil wit-hout a turningover of the same in a manner which provides for the desired opening up of the soil so that it will be readily receptive to the moisture necessary for the proper support of the roots of the seed when planted.

It will also be observed that the invention is of a nature which can be applied as an attachment to most any conventional type of plow and may be used in plowing the same ground as many times in the same year as may be needed and may also be used with similar success on either wet or dry ground, a feature not common in devices of this type.

It will also be observed that the holes for accommodating the securing bolts 6 which hold the blade 3 in the plow head 7 may be elongated to permit longitudinal ad- `iustment of the position of the said blade as may be desired to best suit the same to efficiently function in consideration of the condition of the ground being worked upon.

F rom the foregoing description, taken in connection with the accompanying drawing,

it is thought that the novel details of construction, the manner of operation and the advantages of my invention will be readily apparent to those skilled in the art to which the invention relates.

What I claim is:

1. In a plow of the type stated, a plow head, a weeder blade carried by the plow head to present the edges thereof in angled relation to the ground, the said plow head being cut out to provide securing wings to which the plow beam may be secured, soil breaker horns secured to the plow head to extend rearwardly therefrom in angled relation therewith, and sub-soil cutting knives secured to and depending from the plow head.

2. In a plow of the type stated, a plow head, a weeder blade carried by the plow head in a manner for presenting the edges thereof in angled relation to the ground, the said plow head having a socket providing side wings for receiving and providing a securing means for the plow beam, earth deflecting wings secured to the plow head in position for deflecting the earth outwardly, and soil breaker horns secured to the plow head to extend therefrom in position for receiving the deflecting earth for effecting a breaking up thereof, and sub-soil cutting knives secured to and depending from the plow head.

3. In a plow of the type stated, a plow head, a weeder blade carried by the plow head in a manner for presenting the edges thereof in angled relation to the ground, the said plow head having a socket providing side wings for receiving and providing a securing means for the plow beam, earth deflecting wings, having flanges adapted to be secured to the plow head whereby to position the said wings for effecting a deflection of the earth outwardly, bolt and nut securing means adapted to pass through the said flanges and the side wings for securing the deflecting wings and the plow beam together in rigid relation and soil breaker horns secured to the plow head to extend therefrom in position for receiving the deflected earth for effecting a breaking up thereof, and sub-soil cutting knives secured to and depending from the plow head.

4. In a plow of the type stated, a plow head, a substantially heart-shaped plow blade having a forward point and being tapered from a medial line to provide substantially sharp edges, bolt and nut connections passing through the blade and the plow head to secure the former to the latter in position for presenting the edges thereof in angled relation to the ground, the said plow head including side wings for receiving and forming a securing means for the plow beam, an earth deflecting wing secured to each plow head side to project therefrom in position for detlecting the earth outwardly, the said del'lecting wings each havingv a flange forming a securing means therefor, bolt and nut connections adapted to pass through the plow head wings', the flanges and the plow bealn to secure them in rigid relation, a soil breaker horn secured to each side of the plow head to project therefrom in position to receive and eitl'ect a breakingup of the deflected earth, and sub-soil cutting knives secured to and depending troni the plow head.

5. In a plow of the type stated, a plow head, a weeder blade carried by the plow head in a inanner tor presentingI the edges thereoil in angled relation to the ground, the said plow head having a socket provid ing side wings for receiving and provid ing a securing means or the plow beain, earth deflect-.ing wings secured to the plow head in position for de'flecting the earth outwardly, soil breaker horns secured to the plow head to extend therefrom in position 4for receiving the deflected earth for eil'ecting a breaking up thereof, the earth deflecting wings and the weeder blade being cooperatively positioned whereby to leave a space therebetween and the said weeder blade being provided with a cut away notch to augment the said space.

6. ln a plow oit the type stated, a plow head, a weeder blade carried by the plow head in a manner for presenting the edges thereof in angled relation to the ground, the said plow head having a socket providing side wings for receiving and providing a securing@r means for the plow beam, earth delieoting wings, having flanges adapted to be secured to the plow head whereby to position the said wings for eli'ecting a deflection or the earth outwardly, bolt and .nut securingl means adapted to pass through the said flanges and the side wings `for securing the deflecting' wings and the plow beain together n rigid relation and soil breaker horns secured to the plow head `to ex tend therefrom in position for receiving the deflected earth for edecting, a breaking up thereoi', sub-soiling` cutting knives secured to and depending 'from the plow head, the earth deilecting Wings and the Weecler blade being' cooperatively positioned whereby to leave a space therebetween and the said weeder blade being provided with a cut awa;7 notch to augment the said space.
